Oh, so we’re back to your straw man because nobody ever suggested anything of the sort. Once again, since you’re a little slow, communism is a a mix of private cooperative ownership (which includes being self employed) and state owned industry. What part of that specifically are you objecting to again?

The mode of business communists object to is private enterprise where the capitalist owns the business and hires wage workers.

Once again, you’re showing your reading comprehension problems. I love how you keep telling me how smart you are, but then show that you aren’t able to parse simple sentences.

The bit you quoted was me mocking you saying that people don’t get the benefit of their labor under a mix or cooperative ownership and state enterprise. I feel compelled to reiterate the question from the quote here.

yogthos OP , 4 months ago to memes in How capitalism works

That’s a straw man argument because I never said that being self employed harms anybody. In fact, that’s not different from a cooperative with just a single person working in the business. This is completely compatible with communism you get that right?

See this is what I’m talking about. Poor reading comprehension all around. I’ve addressed this here in detail lemmy.ml/comment/9575251

The boss you employs your dumb ass appropriates all the value that you produce, then pays you a small portion of that value in form of salary. That’s the system where you don’t get benefit of your labor.

When you are an employee, which is the vast majority of population who do not own businesses, you are being exploited by an owner such as yourself who steals your labor.

A business that actually benefits the workers is a worker owned cooperative where people doing the work get to keep the profits. Evidently this concept is really hard for you to wrap your head around.

Xonotic is really fun if you enjoyed Quake 3 and Unreal. Has an active community as well. Beyond All Reason is a pretty polished RTS using Spring engine.

An answer to what?

Navalny never had more than like 2% support in Russia, Calling him the opposition leader shows that you’re utterly clueless on the subject of Russian politics. The actual opposition in Russia is KPRF as opposed to a fucking west backed fascist which is what Navalny was.

What I noticed is that you have really poor reading comprehension because I answered your questions repeatedly. You just keep repeating the same nonsense over and over like a broken record without actually addressing anything I said. It’s like talking to a bot.

yogthos OP , 4 months ago to memes in How capitalism works

I’m not wrong, but you keep on believing whatever you want.

I retired in my 30s using only my labor and no one elses. How does owning my own business not benefit me?

I’m sure you did.

What Putin actually said in your second link is that the west was using terrorism as blackmail. Nowhere did he dismiss it.

She explicitly said battlefield, not concert halls. Considering the US passed along intelligence to the Russians, what’s the supposed angle here? What 5D chess is the US playing? Come on, at least come up with something coherent.

She explicitly said asymmetric warfare which means terrorism. US did not pass any concrete intelligence to Russia either. The angle here is the same as it’s always been, to try and cause civil unrest by any means necessary.

Also, here’s Emily Harding, who is a former CIA operative within the US government-funded think tank CSIS saying: “if we find a way to make the Russian population at home understand the costs of this conflict to them in their hometowns”.

Here’s Gen. Milley: “There should be no Russian who goes to sleep without wondering if they’re going to get their throat slit in the middle of the night,” Milley said, according to an official with knowledge of the event. “You gotta get back there, and create a campaign behind the lines.”

The sentiment in Washington before the Moscow attack was that Russians needed to experience firsthand the impact of the war in Ukraine. This attitude intensified as US sanctions proved ineffective, Russian advancements in Ukraine quickened, and President Putin received a high level of support from the Russian population during recent elections.

Previous attempts to make Russians understand the war’s effects included drone strikes on major city centers, attacks on infrastructure, and efforts to destabilize Russia’s economy.

This is what your terrorist state does everywhere because your country is a plague upon humanity. This is what you’re all about …blogspot.com/…/a-detailed-chronological-list-of-…

China is not communist… You literally dont undestand what any of these systems are. All you do is insult and say nothing.

says the guy who’s been flaunting his ignorance here. 😂

How does owning my own business not benefit me? I am one of those rich people you are jealous of.

Oh now I see, you’re an exploiter scumbag who owns a capitalist business. Everything makes sense now.

yogthos OP , 4 months ago to memes in How capitalism works

China is not, its controlled by a centralized party but it lets people do their own thing.

How to say you have no clue how the system in China works.

I noticed you didnt mention Cuba as a great example of communism, “Because sanctions they cant get ahead!!!” You should check out the vox video on how well their system works.

Cuba has been fucked over by the US regime since the revolution dummy.

Because the harder I work it doesnt directly benefit me, it benefits all the owners. So I would not be incentivized to work harder or longer because I dont get the direct benefit.

Owning your own business doesn’t benefit you. Just how dumb are you exactly?

yogthos OP , 4 months ago to memes in How capitalism works

You’ve already made it abundantly clear that you do not understand what capitalism is. China is a socialist country that’s run by the communist party. Please explain to me how cooperative ownership means not getting the benefit of your labor. Be specific.

Just a video of Vicky Nuland promising “asymmetric warfare” and “nasty surprises” apropos nothing.
